New Living Translation NLT
English Standard Version ESV
1 Come with great power, O God, and rescue me! Defend me with your might.
1
O God, save me by your name, and vindicate me by your might.
2 Listen to my prayer, O God. Pay attention to my plea.
2
O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth.
3 For strangers are attacking me; violent people are trying to kill me. They care nothing for God. Interlude
3
For strangers have risen against me; ruthless men seek my life; they do not set God before themselves. Selah
4 But God is my helper. The Lord keeps me alive!
4
Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life.
5 May the evil plans of my enemies be turned against them. Do as you promised and put an end to them.
5
He will return the evil to my enemies; in your faithfulness put an end to them.
6 I will sacrifice a voluntary offering to you; I will praise your name, O LORD, for it is good.
6
With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you; I will give thanks to your name, O Lord, for it is good.
7 For you have rescued me from my troubles and helped me to triumph over my enemies.
7
For he has delivered me from every trouble, and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.
